Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter in Burton's WONDERLAND

by Matt Holmes

Many are flagging this as fake but I just can't say for certain. This may, or may not be our first look at Johnny Depp as The Mad Hatter from Tim Burton's next movie ALICE IN WONDERLAND. I'm saying probably not because the Disney film will be motion captured so there really is no reason why Depp would be so thoroughly costumed. And it just looks kind of fake. Opening March 10th 2010, Mia Wasikowska will star as the title character opposite Depp (Mad Hatter), Anne Hathaway (The White Queen) Helena Bonham Carter (The Red Queen), Michael Sheen (Cheshire Cat), Matt Lucas (Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum), Crispin Glover (Knave of Hearts), Alan Rickman (Caterpillar) and in unknown roles Stephen Fry and Christopher Lee. The film will use the same 3-D motion captured technology as found in BEOWULF.
